Depression and other mental health struggles do not discriminate. An important part of any kind of human service or ministry is to be mentally and spiritually well.

Erin Stoffel shares about the day her life changed forever. On, May 3, 2015, as the Stoffels went for an early spring walk a random act of violence temporarily separated this family and left Erin fighting for her life.
